Schuil sees this kind of fundraising as an important model for the future. Schuil told Forbes:

“Another great possibility through Bitcoin donations is it more easily allows for truly global campaigns because there are no geographical restrictions and the low cost of Bitcoins enable the possibility of micro funding goals. In the long term I foresee new charities emerge that solely raise and spend Bitcoins where donators can follow the money trail back to the cause.”

Charities interested in working with Safello to raise bitcoins should go here to get in touch with the company.

Safello, which launched in Stockholm 13 months ago, has been busy rolling out new services. The company brought Sweden its first Bitcoin ATM in December, added a faster user identification service in the spring, and partnered with a Swedish transfer service that works with most of the country’s banks so that Safello users can buy bitcoins quickly on their phones.

Also, anyone interested in the remittances market should have a look at Safello summer intern Daniel Leppert’s post on the company blog in July.
